1. We name them, raise them, clothe them and spoil them. We describe them as
manipulative, grumpy, sensitive and caring. And they’re not even human---- they’re
our pets. It’s in our nature to ascribe human characteristics to animal even if they
don’t really exit. For this reason, in the interests of remaining objective observers of
nature, scientists have taken pains to avoid anthropomorphizing animals. To talk
about a dog’s having a swagger or a cat’s being shy would invite professional sneers.
In recent years, however, evidence has begun to show that animals have
personalities after all. Chimps, for example, can be conscientious: they think before
they act, they plan and they control their impulses. Research has identified similar
personality traits in many other species. The big payoff may come down the road, as
scientists begin to use animals to figure out how genes and environment interact to
influence personality. Perhaps that’s the upside to finding out humans aren’t as
unique as we’d thought.
2. There is one more type of traveler that must be mentioned here, if only for the
guidance of the young and simple. He is usually an elderly man, neatly dressed, but
a little tobaccostained, always seated in a corner, and he opens the conversation by
pulling out a gold hunter and remarking that the train is at least three minute behind
time. Then, with the slightest encouragement, he will begin to talk, and his talk will
be all of trains. As some men discuss their acquaintances, or others speak of violins
or roses, so he talks of trains, their history, their quality, their destiny. All his days
and nights seem to have been passed in railway carriage, all his reading seems to
have been in time-tables. He will tell you of the 12.35 from this place and 3.49 from
the other place, and how the 10.18 ran from So-and-So to So-and-So in such a time.
The greatness of his subject moves him to eloquence, and there is passion and
mastery in his voice. However dead you were to the passion, the splendor, the
pathos, in this matter of trains, before he has done with you you will be ready to
weep over the 7.37 and cry out in ecstasy at the sight of the 2.52.
